If you're not enamored with ultra-lightweight, ultra-minimalist saddles then a perfect alternative is the Nashbar SC1 Comfort Saddle. Perfect for a cruiser or hybrid, there's ample amounts of comfortable padding, a center cut-out to relieve pressure, and even built-in shock absorbers to smooth out the bumpiest terrain.

This is the best saddle I have owned in the past 30 years. Not hard like the one I had before. I usually ride anywhere from 8-20 miles 5 X's per week and so far no problem with soreness.Great value and quick delivery.
